Xu Ziqing slept for a full thirteen hours and woke up with the first ray of sunlight in the morning.
When he got up from the bed and looked at the time on the summary sheet, it was a little unbelievable. He had slept from four o'clock yesterday afternoon to five o'clock this morning!
And during this period, I didn't even have a dream.
Full of energy! But a little hungry.
He quickly got up, washed, dressed, and went downstairs, only to find that Chu Han had already gotten up and was making breakfast.
"Dad, you're up! How did you sleep?"
Xu Ziqing was in a good mood, "I slept very well!"
"It seems Miss Ling's dietary therapy is effective! That's great!"
Chu Han was genuinely happy for Xu Ziqing, and felt that Xu Ziqing's expression was much more relaxed today. After all, no one wanted to see their father-in-law frowning every day.
"Yeah! Chu Han, do you have anything to eat? I'm a little hungry."
"It's in progress. Please wait five minutes."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, daughter-in-law."
Chu Han was cooking porridge. He looked up slightly and was stunned for a moment.
This was the first time Xu Ziqing was so polite to her in all the years she had been married into the Xu family.
After a while, Chu Han brought the prepared breakfast to the table, and Xu Zhengwen also got up.
Seeing Xu Ziqing eating downstairs with gusto, I hurried over.
Xu Zhengwen was also very happy to know that Xu Ziqing slept very well and didn't even have a dream.
I ate more unconsciously in the morning.
On the way to work together, the father and son discussed what to give to Ling Ju.
Giving money is too tacky. The Song family is not short of money at all.
Xu Ziqing thought about it and decided to ask Xu Zhengwen to give him something meaningful and valuable to show his sincerity.
"I remember we have a Song Dynasty Jun kiln purple-spotted bowl at home. Let's give that away."
Xu Zhengwen was a little surprised, "Dad, this, isn't it too expensive!"
Xu Ziqing glanced at him and didn't answer directly, "Zhengwen, are you interested in Ling Ju?"
Xu Zhengwen was a little shocked, "Dad, how did you tell that?"
Xu Ziqing smiled, "Your eyes are almost on her. When we were at the Song family, Song Qi always stood in front of his wife. Don't you know what's going on? When we were in the study, there were only three of us, and Song Qi had to guard outside the door. Do you really think he can't see it?"
Xu Zhengwen didn't know what to say, but was his expression that obvious?
"She gave birth to Song Qi's child and is pregnant with two more. Can you accept this? Although that girl is indeed quite outstanding, I suggest you think carefully about it."
Xu Zhengwen looked out the window and said, "Dad, I must have this woman. Besides, she can heal your body and will be of great use to our family. As for the child, it doesn't matter. At worst, the one in my belly will be born and call me dad and take my surname Xu. Then I can let her give birth to two more children for me, isn't that enough?"
Xu Ziqing didn't deny that this kind of woman was indeed very useful in his family. "What about Chu Han?"
Xu Zhengwen smiled and said, "Divorce."
Xu Ziqing did not refute. He did have some opinions about Chu Han not having children for so many years.
"Next month, Song Qi's mission is to go to the southwest border, and Song Xin will also go. You should seize this opportunity. Also, you should send the Jun kiln purple-spotted bowl to her as soon as possible. If you really want to marry her, how can you do it without spending some money? My health can't be delayed either." Xu Ziqing made another gesture, and Xu Zhengwen understood.
It seems that Xu Ziqing agreed to let him marry Ling Ju.
As long as Song Qi died and the Song family fell, he would be able to get Ling Ju easily.
Two days later, Xu Zhengwen delivered the Jun kiln purple-spotted bowl to the Ling family.
Ling Ju didn't know much about antiques, but when Xu Zhengwen said it was something from the Song Dynasty, he felt it was very valuable.
After Xu Zhengwen left, she called Song Wei and asked if he knew anyone who could appraise antiques. Xu Zhengwen gave her a "green bowl" from the Northern Song Dynasty Jun kiln.
Song Wei asked her to wait at home and brought someone over to take a look in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Song Wei brought Ye Qin and a white-bearded old man to the courtyard.
"Juzi, this is Professor Bai from our school. He is quite knowledgeable about cultural relics." Ye Qin introduced.
Ling Ju quickly served tea.
"Miss Ling, please take out the things and let us see them!" The old professor was only interested in cultural relics.
Ling Ju did not dare to delay and quickly took out the 'green bowl'.
When Professor Bai saw Ling Ju doing this, he quickly took it, fearing that it would be broken.
After a careful inspection, his face brightened and his tone was filled with shock. "This is a great item! It's from the Jun kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty! It's worth a million! And it's definitely authentic!"
Ling Ju rubbed his ears, "Professor Bai? What did you say? Did I hear correctly?"
"No, Miss Ling! One hundred percent sure!"
Ling Ju looked at Song Wei, somewhat unbelievable. She thought it was worth at most thirty or fifty thousand. How could it be worth, over a million?
Just when her brain was shutting down, a message suddenly came to her mind.
A Northern Song Dynasty Jun kiln purple-spotted bowl was auctioned in Hong Kong in 2018 for HKD 14.5 million.
Ling Ju was completely shocked!
Xu Zhengwen actually gave her such a valuable gift!
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law? Kill her?" Song Wei kept waving his hands in front of Ling Ju, and Chen Chun on the side was also a little surprised.
"I didn't expect them to give me such a valuable gift."
After seeing off Song Wei, Ye Qin and Professor Bai, Ling Ju couldn't savor the past for a long time.
Professor Bai's obsessed look before he left also showed that this was really a good thing.
Suddenly I remembered what she said before about handing it over to the country, and now I feel a little regretful!
Seeing her silly look, Chen Chun couldn't help laughing, "Little money-grubber, what's wrong? Do you regret it and don't want to hand it over to the country?"
Ling Ju nodded vigorously.
"Mom, I can't believe the Xu family gave me something so valuable. Xu Ziqing's life is so valuable!"
Chen Chun was a little embarrassed to say that there were actually more valuable things in the Shen family's old house.
"Juzi, don't be too surprised. Mom wants to tell you something. There are more valuable things in my old house, and there are more than just one or two."
Ling Ju looked at Chen Chun and licked his lips with his tongue.
How come Shen Chun in front of me suddenly looks even more adorned with jewels? Like a local tycoon.
"Mom, although I like money very much, I will never regret leaving the old house to Song Xin!"
Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back. There is no way to regret something like this.
Ling Ju carefully put the Jun kiln purple-spotted bowl into a box and took it to the bedroom. She searched everywhere but couldn't find a suitable place, so she finally put it in a drawer that she thought was safer.
This way Song Lingchen won’t touch it when playing.
But this thing feels very hot in her hand, and she is reluctant to donate it now.
"Mom, I'll keep this for a few decades and let the kids donate it when they grow up. It seems more useful that way!"
"Sure, you can do whatever you want with the things that are in your hands."
She would never give away something that was in her hands, and it belonged to the Xu family.
However, she really needs to think carefully about how to treat Xu Ziqing.
After thinking for ten minutes, she prepared to go find Li Shiming.
